well, miflash is not the only one, you could also try EDL Tool from right here (ROMs, kernels, development thread).
But yeah, you can. I wonder why you are still in AEX 4.6, but I guess you still haven't got a vendor partition. If that's the case just download a flashable zip of the stock ROM that you want (would've been real handy if you told us what model you have) and flash it away

I'm just saying that you are on an ancient ROM. What's that AEX version, Nougat?
Right now I'm on AEX 6.0 Pie. But yeah, i was just curious.
You will probably need to format your internal storage, but maybe you won't need it. Just do this: After installing the ROM (whatever you decide, EDL Tool or TWRP) install Magisk too, BEFORE BOOTING FOR THE FIRST TIME (If EDL Tool, simply flash the ROM, then tell it not to reboot, flash TWRP, enter TWRP, and flash Magisk; if directly from TWRP just flash magisk right away). This will prevent your internal storage from getting encrypted.
Remember to WIPE DATA AND CACHE BEFORE FLASHING
Anyhow if your phone asks you for a password that doesn't really exist when you try to boot, you'll have to format the internal storage

LOS is pretty good on both fronts, Pure Fusion seems to be based on AOSP, good battery life; Nuclea was pretty good too.
Read EVERYTHING or you may DFU brick your phone (disassembly required) or even wipe your IMEIs. Remember that your phone model is the one on the back of the phone, NOT NECESSARILY the one that the system says!
For custom ROMs you'll need the UNIVERSAL BOOTLOADER, your corresponding MODEM FILE, an image of TWRP 3.1.1-0, and MAGISK on your phone. Reboot only after flashing everything, and after flashing the Universal Bootloader, select Install Image and select the TWRP image, then flash it to the recovery partition

To install any custom ROM you first need to flash the A2017X_Universal_Bootloader.zip, then flash TWRP 3.1.1-0 (the universal bootloader installs an old version of TWRP which will appear after a reboot, you simply overwrite it by flashing the TWRP.img) then the modem file for your own model (for example A2017G_Modem.zip), then the ROM, then Magisk_14.3.zip.
The A2017X_Universal_Bootloader.zip and the modem files are in the LOS thread.

Don't know about any guides, but basically read the posts entirely before actually trying to do anything. The axon7toolkit is nice and all but you just shouldn't use it for flashing stuff. If you have TWRP, you can simply forget about the toolkit for pretty much everything.
To install a ROM you have to use the Install button on TWRP. If you have an error 7 it probably means that your TWRP version is old, check that and install the latest TWRP image if that happens.
If the ROM asks for a pin on startup, go to Wipe then Advanced then Format data

You need to flash ElementalX kernel prior to flash SuperSu or magisk if you want to root stock nougat or marshmallow rom.

Even in soak test it you need to install exkernel as mentioned.
Maybe you wiped the system partition too?! Then you can here's no os at all... Can you remember what partitions you exactly wiped?
I would recommend to clean flash the last available stock nougat rom in terms of security https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 if you don't want to install the soak test again and you're willing to upgrade

As strongst has mentioned, please clarify what you're trying to accomplish with your device - what you want may elicit a different set of suggestions from us.
However, if you're trying to flash a custom ROM, you do not require root at all for our device. You simply require TWRP on your device, then you flash the custom ROM through TWRP. Be aware that many of the latest custom ROM builds are 64 bit in nature and as such require a 64 bit TWRP flashed. The instructions in the relevant custom ROM thread should have the link.
Also, you may wish to clarify what state your device is in at the moment: as far as I can see, it's still in the stock ROM, with TWRP, no system loaded and failing to boot from flashing SuperSU onto the stock ROM kernel, is that correct?

1)Again, you do not need root to install custom ROMs, only TWRP is required.
1a)Which TWRP have you flashed, is this the 32 bit or 64 bit version? If this is the official TWRP 3.2, I think that may be the 32 bit version. In which case, you'll want Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/development/rom-resurrection-remix-n-5-8-0-t3507275
As you cannot boot properly, the easiest way to flash would be to boot your device to TWRP recovery, then connect your device to your computer. Your device's internal storage should be visible then, you may wish to back up your files at this point. Copy the RR custom ROM zip and the GApps package of your choice to your device and flash in TWRP as per the instructions. As usual with flashing custom ROMs, you will have to wipe /system, /data, cache and Dalvik in TWRP before flashing. Up to you if you choose to wipe internal storage as well (but usually a good idea switching between stock and custom ROMs).
Once you've booted into RR, you should have root as it already comes with magisk.
If you want to flash the RR 6.0 custom ROM, you must have the 64 bit TWRP recovery flashed before you attempt to flash the 6.0 custom ROM or any Oreo custom ROMs at the time of writing.
2)Alternatively, as strongst has suggested, if you simply want your device to be working again, you'll have to flash the latest stock ROM again, since you've likely tripped the anti-rooting measures in the stock kernel.

Which soak test, NPJ25.75-2? If so, that's a really old soak test, and as such I would recommend you flash the latest stock ROM available for your device, else you may run into issues with the newest custom ROMs, particularly if you have a G4 Plus. Can you mention what device and what region you're in, so we can guide you to the correct stock ROM to flash?
Yeah, that phone not turning on is because of SuperSU flashed onto the stock Nougat kernel, which you cannot do for our device - you need a custom kernel. The main ways to get around it are as I described above - flash a custom ROM or re-flash the correct stock ROM for your device.
I was about to give up and go back to stock but lo and behold I got ahold of a link to a really nice GSI for our Honor 7x devices, and any other device with the Hi6250 chipset. It has worked flawlessly on my BND-L24 and doesn't give me weird uncertified device and internal storage errors like the treble GSI found in the treble ROM forums.

Alright, let's install.
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Go to wipe - advanced wipe
3. Wipe all but SD card
3. Then go back to wipe.
4. There is an option next to advanced wipe, forgot what it was. (I think it was "Format Data")
5. Tap that option and type "yes"
6. Reboot back into TWRP
7. Flash the ROM and flash Open GApps right after flashing the ROM (I used Pico Open GApps)
8. Do a factory reset, wipe Cache, Dalvik / ART cache, and Data in advanced wipe just to be sure.
9. Reboot

EDIT: I'm no longer on this ROM so if there are bugs and you want me to reproduce them, I can not help you. Sorry, I need a more stable ROM for our Honor 7x's than this one. Thanks for understanding.
It's not the best idea to wipe with TWRP. It's better to do it with stock recovery or manually with fastboot.

Does it work on BND-L21C432 ? What are the steps to install the rom ? Does it have to be EMUI 8.0 ?

Usually that is the one that works, or you can find a treble-compatible version of Magisk to flash.

Most likely there is something wrong with what you're using to flash the GApps, like the SD card, USB OTG, etc. Try switching it out.
But before doing all that, first flash the ROM, and then reboot again into TWRP and try flashing it if that makes a difference. Make sure you're flashing the ROM like the original post says.

Hi,
I just flashed the latest stock update.
The problem is that I can't decryt my data in TWRP, and hence cant flash anything from internal storage.
Is there any TWRP build that supports encryption/decryption ?
A Taiwanese regularly compiles TWRP up to date with the security updates on Zentalk (TW). You can check this MEGA folder every month he uploads to. The latest one works with .339
In case you cant fix it, next time make sure that you flash the files in this order: rom, magisk, decrypt.zip

You should flash latest after installing this one by installing recovery img in TWRP i am telling you cause i have tried 3.2.3-5+ with the dirty santa process for my phone and thats the message i was getting unless downgrading to 3.2.3-4
Also decryption is unsuccessful comes as a result of not formatting data on twrp after the first install of twrp but you said that you did format data so i thought you were trying to flash newer twrp via the root process of the H918

do you have 3.2.3-4? I couldn't find it anywhere unfortunately
edit:already solved it by using 3.2.3-0/1 from official twrp website. but the problem is that i get 0mb storage on internal storage on TWRP. I am not exactly new to this problem but even after flashing no verity op encryption zip. I still get it. sigh.

you need to format data first time
noddledizzy said:
after doing this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/step-step-guide-lg-v20-h918-unlocking-t3808258
and finally installing a stock based rom, which is Alpha Omega Rom. I get stuck at secure startup and telling that decryption unsuccessful. I tried it with other stock based rom like a prerooted one but the result are still the same. I am never new to this problem and usually this get solved by going to twrp and wiping data(the one you have to type yes) but it did not solve this problem. Really need help badly.

I have this problem too for a couple days a go,
but now it have been fixed.
Flash TWRP 3.2.3 via fastboot
Boot into TWRP

I think Its TWRP 3.3 bug or something that not decrypt perfectly..

I did format data so many times already that it nuked my twrp(just stopped booting into it all of a sudden, still unsure if that caused it though)

Yes me too, and it almost make me crazy back in the days ?
the solution (at least for now) is downgrade TWRP it into v3.2.3-4. flash it via adb fastboot command, format data, then reboot. But sorry i dont have TWRP for H918, becoz im using F800L.. and since your TWRP has been nuked, youll have to reflash TWRP again yes? ?
Or, if youbdont want to downgrade TWRP, you can use AOSP based rom such as LOS15.1.. i already tried that rom and it dont have problem with encrypt/decrypt thing like stock based rom.

Thank you so much, no wonder i wasn't able to find v3.2.3-4 because it's labeled as the release date. What does the sim unlock do? I mean, I can receive messages and stuff but just not get any once in awhile. Will this actually solve that?

Yes i knew that. My TWRP 3.2.3-4 IMG file is labeled with same date like that.
About sim unlock, Actually I dont know for sure because in f800l we dont seeing any sim problem at all.. but in my opinion just download it, in case you seeing problem with locked sim after flashing, it will be very useful..
anyway, i found a thread that discussing about h918 sim unlock thing

Thanks, I will try going back to stock roms and will report back to you.
And I forgot to mention that I already got twrp fixed after it got nuked. Sadly, I don't think fastboot flashing works on h918 so I had to do lafsploit method to flash twrp again.

Ok then and happy flashing m8 ?
noddledizzy said:
Where does it exactly say that I cannot flash anything higher than 3.2.3-4. All it says is to download the latest twrp from https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3720239
Do you have a link to 3.2.3-4? It seems like 3.2.3-5 is the lowest twrp I could find in Phoenix591's android filehost https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=235271
edit: while waiting for responses, I went ahead and installed unofficial LOS15 then I was able to boot without any problem. It seem like this will only happen with stock/stock based roms.

Where? Right in the portion where it says Known Issues of the first link.
Downgrading TWRP to 3.2.3-4 will fix it. I had the same issue.
Thanks for the notes. Unfortunately this did not work for me. I ended up in this position after updating Magisk to 20.2, or trying to. My H918 went to being stuck in the fastboot mode. I was able to get to TWRP, and reinstalled H91820h.zip, but then faced with "Decryption unsuccessful" I downgraded TWRP to twrp-3.2.3-0, and deleted everything except the external microsd card, reinstalled H91820h.zip, but still stuck at the "Decryption unsuccessful". Are there other things I should try?
Thanks,
Rob

From TWRP thread:
Changed one last thing to try to fix stock Oreo decryption.
There were an upstream TWRP change that should fix the issue where formatting was still leaving /data encrypted as well (this was actually in the last build, but I didn't notice it then)

If you still have your non-Encryption-supporting TWRP as download mode, wipe data from there. For some reason which was documented in the TWRP thread, most versions of V20 TWRP doesn't remove the encryption flag even on a full wipe. I've gone through the pain several times, but here's roughly what I went through about a month ago. It's possible that using the latest TWRP may allow you to skip straight to step 8. As of this latest wipe, I'm finally at a point again where my phone works properly and TWRP can still see my data.
Basic process to hopefully have a working ongoing phone and TWRP:
1. Reboot to download-mode TWRP
2. Wipe dalvik/cache/data from the older download-mode TWRP
3. Factory reset with YES, still in older download-mode TWRP
4. Reboot to system; it should give you the new-system-setup past the Decryption unsuccessful screen on your wiped device
5. Setup without a Google account or fingerprint
6. Reboot back to recovery, not download TWRP; use download mode to get there if you need to
7. Flash the latest TWRP version from the thread (no older than October 25, 2019)
8. Reboot back to recovery
9. Wipe dalvik/cache/data
10. Reboot back to system
11. Setup as you like
12. Reboot back to recovery and make sure you can see your storage
If it gets a decryption error on latest TWRP at step 12 and you can't see data while in Recovery, try skipping adding a fingerprint during setup (run through steps 8-12, no fingerprint on 11) and see if that fixes it.

My solution turned out to be formatting /data. Wiping it was apparently not really wiping it clean. Formatting it got me back to a working phone, though I had to re-install everything.
Thanks everyone for the help!
